The SHADES most admired in the popular
English seaside serges are blue, black, brown,
chocolate, and o sort of neutrality-suspicious.
Ii any, however, being given to blue
A NEW THING IN HATS is the white silk dotted
net varieties. They are trimmed with wild now-
ers and net, and are, Of course, very light weight
acommendable quality at this season OF the year.
A STYLISH TENNIS SKIRT was OF white albatross
cloth beautifully emproidered at the side and
Ornamented at the waist with pale yellow silk
sash, while white silk Jersey completed the cos
tune.

ootn back and front and finishing at the waist
Win lappets are to be worn this fall with colored
mass the Iney are sure to be popular, for they
a CHARMING Partisan toilet is OF pale lemon silk
gauze, striped lengthwise with narrow satin rib
DOnS. The low neck corsage has fouln Of mains
lace around the edge, forming epaulets. On the
rlght nip is cluster OF yellow and red pinks.
A PRETTY WRAP to throw about the shoulders is
three-cornered piece OF China Grape, embroidered
WIN hght-running vine pattern and deeply
Irlnged. These come in lovely shades Of blue
Fose' cream pale green poppy red and corn color.
BLACK STOCKINGS are being somewhat superseded
oy those which match the color OF the costume
new Idea Is of stockings with front and back Of
ainerent color. Some are shown with the front of
Dlack and the back OF red; others are blue behind
and olive in 'front.'
The NEWEST IMPORTATION OF ribbons from Paris
show strong tendency to changeable coloring;
red changes with blue, shrimp-pink with white,
blue with ecru and rose-pink with green. The
'norescent" ribbons are new also and come In sash
widths as well as in narrow samples.
SOME VERY PRETTY HATS worn at the seashOre
call to mind the cOQuettish headdresses Of the Nor
mandy fisher girls. They have very high, narrow,
round crowns which are covered with shirred
cream-colOred null. The brim Is covered with
lace rufies and big ribbon bow is placed upon
the front.
THE BELrED WAIST or ''banded BODICE as sail
OTIS call It, Is in great favor for summer toilets.
These have full straight skirt gathered to belt,
and are without drapery. The sash is passed
around the waist and tied in long loops and ends.
The loops may be fatty folded or there may be
loose open loops that swing and form the drapery.
ALREADY IN PARIS the arbiters of fashion are de-
Gliding upon the winter cOlors The great favOrite,
1t is said, Is to be dark mOssgreen, trimmed with
black. Black Is to be used to trim everything and
great comfort 1t will be to small purses, Tor it
allows black hat, umbrella, gloves and boots,
and does away with countless accessories as neceS
stiles.
WHITE, CREAM TINTED ANB YELLOW SAsHEs are
most used, though shades Of tilleul and lettuce
green are still liked for black and white lace
dresses. Watered ribbons, with picOt edges are
the general choice OF these Sash9S The pOmpa-
dour sashes are a novelty, with bands OF satin
StreWed with small flowers Of natural cOOrS alter
mating with watered-silk stripes.
ANOTHER NEW IDEA In theI precious-stone line is
to have single stones Of all kinds sizes and shapes
mounted separately in sort OF crown setting,
with four tiny holes to enable one to sew them on
velvet or ribbon dog collars. The nearer and
more numerous they are the better, and bugs,
flowers, butterflies and such fancy pins ind their
way happily into these brilliant constella-
lions
The CRocHETED WHITE LACEs AND IRISH POINT
EMBROIDERY are very effectively used as a wide
border at the front or side band on the SKIRT and
as yoke or vest on the waist Of cotton sateen
dresses In shades OF pale gray heliOtrOpe, or the
dull pink known as Old rose. These bordered
skirts are always plain around, not plated, and
for many the velvet border Is SUFFICIENT without
the lace. The same methods OF trimming are used
with good effect on cotton crepes and other cotton
fabrics.
LACE DRESSES, made Of the forty.inch laces
either black or white, are worn with beted waists
OF China Grape and wide sashes. Sometimes the
sashes are OF the new Roman MORE, which comes
also be made OF them and with the lace skirts
have very bright and pretty effect. The broad
est Sashes worn with these dresses are fourteen
inches wide, but those from ten to eleven in width
are much more popular.
For CHILDRENs SAsHEs wide surah ribbons are
Imported with diagonal stripes and rows OF balls
separated by heavily -twilled lines These lie so
closely and cOmpactly that they do not easily come
united, and are therefore best liked for little peO-
Pies wear. Madras sashes In rich dull cOlOrs are
worn with black lace or net dresses When they
are Worn Win OaSqueS they are folded narrowly,
brought to point In 'front.' outline The basque and
are tied under the position, making very bOufT-
ant effect.

young men and maidens, as the matrimonial agent.

says to him: 81 want to marry"
